Journal ArticleDOI

The reeler gene encodes a protein with an EGF-like motif expressed by pioneer neurons.

TL;DR: In situ hybridization reveals that the transcript is detected exclusively in the pioneer neurons which guide neuronal cell migration along the radial array, which offers an explanation for how the reeler mutant phenotype causes a disturbance of the complex architecture of the neuronal network.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dysfunction of the Orleans Reeler Gene Arising from Exon Skipping Due to Transposition of a Full-Length Copy of an Active L1 Sequence into the Skipped Exon

TL;DR: Interestingly, the skipped exon was inserted by the 7104 bp L1 element which carried the full-length stretch of the mouse L1 sequence, consisting of a 212 bp F-type tandem repeat, open reading frame 1 (ORF1), ORF2, the polyadenylation signal and a poly A stretch.
Journal ArticleDOI

A unique downregulation of h2-calponin gene expression in Down syndrome: a possible attenuation mechanism for fetal survival by methylation at the CpG island in the trisomic chromosome 21.

TL;DR: In this paper, DNA methylation in the CpG island of the h2-calponin gene was investigated with the DNAs of chromosome 21 isolated from DS patients and their parents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of heterozygosity in chromosomes 1, 5, 7 and 13 in mouse hepatoma detected by systematic genome-wide scanning using RLGS genetic map

TL;DR: An RLGS-based scanning system to detect DNA alteration in tumor tissues, using 575 mapped spots/loci in a single gel, applied to search for the LOH of hepatoma from an interspecific F1 hybrid between Mus spretus and C57BL/6 with SV40 early T antigen transgene connected to a mouse major urinary protein enhancer/promoter.
Book ChapterDOI

Protocols for RLGS Gel Production

TL;DR: Protocols for two good representative enzyme combinations, combination 1 (NotI-PvuII-PstI) and combination 2 (PacI-EcoRV-MboI), are shown.
